The key Fantasy Premier League assets all start for Crystal Palace against Brighton.

Wilfried Zaha (£6.7m), Martin Kelly (£4.3m) and Vicente Guaita (£5.1m) have all survived a recent wave of injuries.

Roy Hodgson is without Patrick van Aanholt (£5.5m), Joel Ward (£4.4m) and Jeffrey Schlupp (£5.5m) through injury while Mamadou Sakho (£5.0m) is serving the second of a three-match suspension.

However, Andros Townsend (£5.6m) and Gary Cahill (£4.5m) are missing from the team.

Meanwhile, Neal Maupay (£5.8m) starts up-front for Brighton while Yves Bissouma (£5.0m) gets a rare appearance in central midfield.

Crystal Palace XI: Guaita; Riedewald, Dann, Tomkins, M Kelly; McArthur, Milivojevic, Kouyaté; Zaha, Benteke, Ayew.

Brighton and Hove Albion XI: Ryan, Montoya, Webster, Dunk, Burn, Pröpper, Bissouma, Mooy, Groß, Maupay, Trossard.

    Guaita
    Lund Rico Aurier
    KDB Son Alli Grealish

  2. King Kohli
    • 13 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    Best Mane replacement?

    A. Moura
    B. Alli
    C. Richarlison
    D. Grealish

    Mane KDB Son Maddison Cantwell
    VAR

    Will get Salah for gw 20 or 21.

    1. Amey
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      D for me

    2. Party time
      6 years, 8 months ago

      B. Son & Alli double up

    3. rdamjan
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      Can`t you just bench Mane for one week?

    4. Not again Shirley
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      Not sure Salah any better than mane to be honest. Yes he played advanced role last time out but that was more an exception than a rule.

      I would keep Mané.

  3. rdamjan
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    Opinion on this?

    Zaha & TAA -> Alli & Aurier (2FTs, 0.2 ITB after transfers)

    1. Party time
      6 years, 8 months ago

      No brainer

    2. EMERGING STAR
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      Yes

  4. EMERGING STAR
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    Only Mane from blanking teams and have 11 starters. Just save the FT?

    Gazza
    Rico Kelly Lundy Soy
    Alli Son(c) KDB Maddi
    Vardy Abraham

    Button Tomori Mane Wickam 0ITB

    1. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      Yep, save

    2. SAY MY NAME
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      i would sell Tomori for a playing bench player, and maybe play them over Soy this week

    3. EMBOLOFAN
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      id consider maddi to grealish

  5. nibby
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    Tammy to Rashford
    Or
    Maddison to grealish

    1. EMBOLOFAN
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      no idea why youd do the former

    2. SAY MY NAME
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      probably save with those options

  6. Jontharon
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    Henderson
    Lundstram, Rico, Kelly, Soy
    KDB, McGinn, Son
    Jiménez, Vardy, Abraham

    Button, Mane, Hayden, Taa

    1ft, 0.6 itb
    A. Mcginn > Grealish
    B. Mane > Sterling (or someone else)
    C. Save?

    1. SAY MY NAME
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      save, or take a hit and do taa+mcginn > alli + cheap defender

  7. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    Thoughts on Doherty against Norwich?

    1. SAY MY NAME
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      hopefully supplying Jimenez for one of his hat-trick goals 🙂

      1. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 8 months ago

        Jimmy hat trick? no thanks 😉

        1. SAY MY NAME
          • 9 Years
          6 years, 8 months ago

          aww just one little hat-trick (plus a couple of assists) please 🙂

    2. rodragon
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      I'm thinking of getting him as a one week punt and then remove him the next week when I play wc

    3. EMBOLOFAN
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      cant speak for him but playing against sam byram looks quite good fun

  8. milanista10
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    A) Dendoncker to Grealish (benching TAA & Mane)
    B) TAA & Mount to Aurier & Son -4

    A or B lads?

    1. Amey
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      B

    2. SAY MY NAME
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      if it was me i'd do B as it seems the better medium term move (NB: i don't mind the odd hit)

    3. EMBOLOFAN
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      a comfortably

    4. KunDogan

  9. DAVESAVES
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    Captain Poll:

    A) Son - CHE
    B) KDB - LEI
    C) Grealish - SOU
    D) Rashford - wat
    E) Vardy - mci

    1. Jontharon
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      A, because of chelseas defense

    2. SAY MY NAME
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      might punt on A

    3. fish&chips
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      Son for me as well, could have a field day against Chelsea's defence

    4. EMBOLOFAN

      d

    5. KunDogan

    Mane + tomori to rich+ doherty
    Pulisic+tomori to grealish+doherty
    Pulisic+tomori to rich+targett
    Pulisic+taa to rich+doherty
    All for free
    I'm planning to play my wc after this so i can remove doherty and get back mane too! !!

    1. fish&chips
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      All good options but I'd probably go with no. 2

      1. rodragon
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 8 months ago

        Thanks

    2. KunDogan

      Grealish&Doherty

  11. fish&chips
    • 16 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    All set for GW18?

    Pope
    Aurier, Targett, Lund,
    Son, Alli, KDB, Madds,
    Rash, Vardy, Ings

    4.0, Cantwell, Chilwell, TAA

    0 FT, 1.8 ITB

    1. EMBOLOFAN
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      id prob start cantwell over madds but im of the opinion that city arent as bad at the back as most people make out

    2. SAY MY NAME
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      i'd go chilwell first on bench, cantwell seems to be getting a few point cameos, chilwell could get an assist if not a clean sheet

      1. EMBOLOFAN
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 8 months ago

        combining this season and last 1 side has kept a cs at the etihad

        1. fish&chips
          • 16 Years
          6 years, 8 months ago

          cheers for the inputs guys

        2. SAY MY NAME
          • 9 Years
          6 years, 8 months ago

          that's why said assist chance not cs

  12. Crossologist
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    Fleck + Zaha ==> El Ghazi + James

    Thoughts?

    1. fish&chips
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      I wouldn't be kicking Zaha out right now

    2. EMBOLOFAN
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      rather have the first two

      1. Crossologist
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 8 months ago

        Yeah but having Fleck on 1 game suspension is essentially the problem with TAA and Mane out too, don't plan on losing them..just yet and Soy facing Man C is going to net me 1 point max

        1. EMBOLOFAN
          • 8 Years
          6 years, 8 months ago

          prefer it if it involves grealish

    3. SAY MY NAME
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      think Zaha is the only player of that lot that i'd be mildly interested in

    4. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      Nah, prefer FZ

  13. Aleksei
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    start one:

    A)Chilwell
    B)Cantwell

    1. EMBOLOFAN
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      b

    2. Cojones of Destiny

      В

  14. Cojones of Destiny
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    whod you play :
    a. Puli
    b. Rico

    1. EMBOLOFAN
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      a not close

  15. FOO FIGHTER
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    Those 8 points from Guaita took me from red to green arrows 🙂

  16. Eleven Hag
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    Rashord in for

    A) Jimenez
    B) Tammy

    1. EMBOLOFAN
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      no

      1. Eleven Hag
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 8 months ago

        I have resisted so far, but rashford keeps rising in price and soon I wont be able to afford him....

        do u think jimmy and tammy are better options than him??

        1. EMBOLOFAN
          • 8 Years
          6 years, 8 months ago

          yes

          1. EMBOLOFAN
            • 8 Years
            6 years, 8 months ago

            jimmy plays NOR

    2. One for All
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      Would keep Jimenez against Norwich, Man Utd struggle against bottom League teams

  17. Feloh
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    Is Mane + Mount to Sterling + Martial for free appealing to your eyes???

    I have exact funds and Sterling will be a placeholder for Salah.

    1. EMBOLOFAN
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      yes

    2. Eleven Hag
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      Both sterling and martial are the ones ppl looking to get rid of

    3. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      As a punt it looks fine but personally I dont like the way they are performing at the moment.

      1. EMBOLOFAN
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 8 months ago

        yeah sterlings 9 goals in 16 league games (16 in 24 in all comps) is really concerning

  18. RamaJama
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    Anyone know if the lms safety score of 52 points are after hits?

    1. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      Yep

      1. Philip Jones's Diary
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 8 months ago

        Is there a league code for that? I've somehow missed entering it this year.

        1. Holmes
          • 12 Years
          6 years, 8 months ago

          https://www.livefpl.net/LMS

          You will get the league code here but have to cross check safety score with TM

  19. nibby
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    Need some help fellas. What would you do with these lot?

    Guaita (Button)
    Maguire Lundstrom Aurier (Soyunco TAA)
    KDB Maddison Son Alli (Cantwell)
    Maupay Tammy Vardy

    Got 1FT. Am i good to roll the FT? TIA.

    1. EMBOLOFAN
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      yes

      1. EMBOLOFAN
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 8 months ago

        altho id prob move maddison on personally

  20. FOO FIGHTER
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    The only viable way for me to get KDB in is getting rid of Abraham or Rashford. I am wondering if it ain't going to be sideways as City will not be playing Arsenal every week.

    May just continue without City but have GW18 to reassess the situation. If KDB puts in another haul playing in an advacenced role vs LEI then guess he should not be ignored.

    1. EMBOLOFAN
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      10.3 is a lot of money for an assist merchant who doesnt have a history of outperforming a (pretty unremarkable) xg

      1. Greek Flair
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 8 months ago

        You have to be joking right, you must a troll?

        1. EMBOLOFAN
          • 8 Years
          6 years, 8 months ago

          not an argument

    2. Wally banter
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      one situation to monitor for you is kun is back, and kdb have better sync with him than any other city player

  21. HurriKane
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    Anyone else think Kane and Son will be only spurs attackers safe from rotation?

    The way spurs setup right now Eriksen can slot in for Alli while Sissoko has played in lucas position under Mou. Meanwhile No other player possess the ability to replace Son and Kane.

    Infact Last season between December 23 and Jan 1 both Kane and Son started all 4 games doing significant damage in the process

    1. Pinturicchio10
      6 years, 8 months ago

      The two most likely yeah. They're Spurs' best players after all.

    2. Ginkapo FPL
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      Dier wont be rotated

  22. SpaceCadet
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    Taa ings > Kelly rashford for free?

    1. Phil's Stamps
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      Yep

    2. Feloh
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      Rashford was pretty meeh against an Everton team defending deep.

    3. SAY MY NAME
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      taa > kelly, save the other ft and play ings, or spend the cash elsewhere

      1. SpaceCadet
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 8 months ago

        Don't think rashford will outscore ings over the next few gws?

  23. Pinturicchio10
    6 years, 8 months ago

    Probably going to get a red arrow this week but I'm sticking to my guns and keeping Liverpool trio..

    Guaita
    Dunk / Rico / Lundstram / Aurier
    Dendoncker / Maddison / Pulisic
    Abraham / Vardy / Ings

    Button / Salah / Mane / TAA

    Captain decision is interesting. Ings / Vardy right now.

    1. FOO FIGHTER
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      I was going to play my free hit but also sticking to my guns. Have not taken any hits either.

      1. Pinturicchio10
        6 years, 8 months ago

        Yeah no hits here either. Dropped Tomori for Aurier with ft. Not the greatest trade this week but going forward makes a lot of sense.

        Who's your captain?

        1. FOO FIGHTER
          • 7 Years
          6 years, 8 months ago

          I am capping Son.

          1. Pinturicchio10
            6 years, 8 months ago

            Good pick that Chelsea defence is poor.

    2. IRBOX ⚽
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      35 million on the bench!? Definite red arrow sorry mate

      1. Pinturicchio10
        6 years, 8 months ago

        Looks likely alright. Run after the blank is too good, not selling.

        1. IRBOX ⚽
          • 9 Years
          6 years, 8 months ago

          Mane to Spurs could be worth it. Son or Alli with much better fixtures

          1. Pinturicchio10
            6 years, 8 months ago

            Kinda fecks with my plan. Involves a hit and having to use a ft to bring Mane back. Looking to bank in gw19.

  24. ludaslol
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    1 FT, 1.4 itb

    Pope
    TAA Soy Lundestram Kelly Rico
    KDB Zaha son Pulisic Saka
    Rashford Jesus Vardy

    Thoughts?

    1. Phil's Stamps
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      Pulisic to anyone (Alli, Grealish, Rich) is popular on here.

  25. Phil's Stamps
    • 15 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    My original plan was to bring in Alli for Salah on a FT, but as I have Aurier & Son, thinking it might be more prudent to bring in Richarlson. Chelsea are poor but it is a derby and Lampard will be expecting a response after the last game. Arsenal on the other hand are simply awful at the back and I don't think the appointment of Arteta will change that within a few days. Both have good fixtures the week after. What do you think?

    A) Alli
    B) Rich

    1. Eleven Hag
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      With Ancelotti IN, I may want to wait n see how richarlson is being used

      1. Pinturicchio10
        6 years, 8 months ago

        They appointed Ancelotti??

        1. Holmes
          • 12 Years
          6 years, 8 months ago

          Yep

          1. Pinturicchio10
            6 years, 8 months ago

            Interesting. Nice fixture block between 22 / 26. Worth keeping an eye on.

  26. st4rty
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    Morning, 75 pts & through to next round of the cup. 🙂

    In somewhat of a pickle for next GW. 2 FTs & £0.8m ITB.

    Henderson
    Lund - Kelly - Tomori
    Zaha - Madders - KDB - Puli - Mane
    Vardy - Kane

    VVD on my bench also, with two others that don't play.

    Use the FTs to shift VVD & Mane, but who for?

    1. Feloh
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      Martial + Shaw if you love a punt.

      1. st4rty
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 8 months ago

        Was just looking at Shaw ngl. Martial, not sure given how he burned me previously. That said...

    2. Pinturicchio10
      6 years, 8 months ago

      What can you do with Tomori and one of your scrubs? Can you reach two starters?

      1. st4rty
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 8 months ago

        Sadly not. I have Walker-Pieters & Wickham, ha!

        Walker-Pieters frustrates me being there, down the line I'd want 3 Spurs.

        I am thinking Son/Utd def.

        1. Pinturicchio10
          6 years, 8 months ago

          Might need to sling Van Dijk so. And Tomori. You can afford to keep Mane.

  27. SpaceCadet

    Squad look ok for this gw? Bench order correct? Thanks

      Good to go. KDB, Son and Jimenez all great captaincy options. I'm on Jimmy right now because he is a fellow Latino.
